Tribulant Times Like These
Experiencing strength and hope
During these tribulant times when I need to cope
With these mixed emotions within
To clear away the loss within a win
You don’t want to know what goes through my muse
You don’t want to know what flows into my mindless blues
If you are considerate enough,
Tell me life will be less rough...
I’m tough-skinned and strong
All along, I want to belong
I don’t want to be in the wrong...in His sight
Because I want to be right
With God with utmost might
Tonight, I want to fly away oh so very high
So I can be vigilant and joyous, oh I’ll try...
With God with utmost might
Because I want to be alright
I don’t want to be left behind once more —rest assured I’d be less bored
Or else I’d be struck by negativity’s shameful sword
All along, I have been sore due to being ignored...
The one I adore is the word of the Lord
I’ve made improvements in my life
I’ve made progress away from strife
I’ve persuaded myself to move forward
Never looking back like a liberty bird
Never looking backward and looking inward, now looking outward
I noticed progress in your life of confidence and shame
I can’t quite express this feeling inside and I’m the one to blame
I’m sorry if I seem like I’m ignoring you so
Romancing and reminiscing remorseful wars though
